Muse #164

I am totally surprised by the fact that April is over ... life is flying by too quickly! Here we are in May, and here I am, your Muse once again!Spring-time is always pretty busy around our Two Acre Wood ... two momma Wood Ducks in their nest boxes, a garden to prepare for planting, and things are finally looking a bit green - always a welcomed sight!Today I saw that my lilac will bloom soon - this reminded me how long it has been since I've used my M.E. Sweet Havana set of stamps, and dies ... thus my card for you today:

I've embossed a partial circle using a MFT pierced circle die

I do hope I have given you a little inspiration to play along at Muse this week ... will I be seeing you in the gallery? Hope so!=] Michele

[I was inspired by the lovely photo at The Card Concept for this Clean and Layered card, and a sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week. Ms. Mojo still needs a little leg-up, it seems.]

Time may be flying by, but you are definitely embracing every moment with gorgeous creations like this, Michele! I love your choice of flowers, and your color palette is stunning! Love your embossed half circle and gray vase, too...so pretty! Count me in to play along :)

This is my first time seeing this set and you just made me need to have it Michele! Lovely! The debossing really adds interest and draws my eye across the top flowers, down to the bottom sentiment! Brilliant!

Such a pretty card, Michele! I love lilacs - they are blooming right now and that smell is just wonderful! Even more enticing to play along as you hand deliver the second challenge we can participate with - so thoughtful of you :)

What a pretty card, Michele - Oh, I love those flowers and the embossed circle is such a great idea!!! I'm inspired, my friend and will play again this week!!!! What a fabulous card!!!!Have a great day!!!!Hugz

why didn't I stamp those little leaves when I used your set? I may have to mix in some of my WPlus9 lilacs to make a full bouquet. I love the embossed circle. You only think you need help, Michele. Your creativity is right on track.

Your spring-time surroundings sound incredibly beautiful, as is your card! I love lilacs, but we don't see many around these parts. Sighhh...Their colours and fragrance: heavenly! I'm aiming to play; just need to come up with an idea...Hugs~c

What, Michele ... we're in May ... already? Did someone press the fast forward button?? Your watering can of sweet lilacs is just beautiful ... soft and delicate ... and I can almost smell the fragrance from here! Gosh, I do hope you see me in the gallery ... I need the pause button!! Hugs, mon amie, Anita :)
